this is my psych journal, and is strictly, pickily, friends only. visit my main journal -
twink_q - if you want to see the rest of my life (though that too is also friends only, but more open). comment to the public post if you want to be added here.
more about me:
i run a costuming and custom sewing business from home, with sporadic customer flow. i live in half a rented duplex with my husband, our girlfriend, all our critters, and more books, fabric, sewing machines and electronics than even the most energetic of you could shake a stick at. i work at the MN Renaissance Festival, i'm on the board of the MN Herpetological Society (still trying to figure out a way to get a sweater to stay on a snake!), on the council of the Twin Cities Polyamorous Discussion Group, and doing some volunteer stitching for local theatres. i go to CONvergence every year, where the poly group hosts a room party. i'm also involved (on and off) in the local pagan and glbt communities. i don't know what free time is.

i am:
- a very eclectic pagan, studying for over 10 years.
- bisexual, polyamorous, in a closed triad with yoric77 and brandy.

- a seamstress, specializing in costuming and sewing without a pattern.
- a festie, working at como cottage at the mn renaissance festival since 2003.
- drawn to animals, especially snakes, cats, and horses.
- "mom" to 1 dog, 2 cats, 6 snakes, and a guinea pig.

- books: anything by stephen king, poppy z. brite, dean koontz; harry potter, hitchhiker's guide, horror, fantasy, sci-fi, children's books, classics... almost anything with a cover and pages, really.
- movies: the alien quadrilogy, peter jackson's lord of the rings, armageddon, fight club, se7en, bound, mind-fucks (like: memento, pi, eternal sunshine of the spotless mind), good anime, anything directed by gregg araki or hayao miyazaki...
